Cannot create / edit Perpectives using Tabular Editor v2.22.1

I am no longer able to create a new Perspective (grayed out) or edit / delete existing Perspectives.  This issue must have started within the last few days as a week ago I was able to create new Perspectives. Is anyone else aware of this issue or have a fix?  We use this feature so our users can make their own "changes" using Personalization to shared PowerBI reports so this is a significant issue for me. I'm using Tabular Editor v2.22.1 and have been doing so for a number of years with no issues up until now.

@Jai-Rathinavel Thank you for your response. I found a post on Tabular Editor's site with this workaround

I am not familiar with BIM files but I will investigate that too.

 

Thanks!

Hi @mlucking ,
Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum. 

 

I would also take a moment to thank @Jai-Rathinavel , for actively participating in the community forum and for the solutions you’ve been sharing in the community forum. Your contributions make a real difference.

 

As suggested, could you please try saving the BIM file of your model and then open it directly using Tabular Editor? This will help confirm if the Perspectives option becomes available again.

 

If I misunderstand your needs or you still have problems on it, please feel free to let us know.   

Best Regards, 
Community Support Team.
